TLAH line array for church

#1 Post by mechatronic »

Is the TLAH line array 6 mid and 9 tweeters good to use in a very small church?
The file states for 9 feet and greater, use the 6x9 version.
The church volume is 10' wide by 30' depth by 8' high.
What small sub-woofer will work for this room size?
Is there a good way to hang the speakers to avoid using speaker stands?
T39 x2
DR250 x4
WH10 x4
T18 x1
vSLA x4
T24 x2

Yes, TLAH would be great.

Sort of impossible to answer without knowing what you want to put through the sub (in terms of content).
But you own a T24 right?
Use that once the TLAH(s) are up to aid in sub assessment.

Look up the term French cleat...
Built:
DR 250: x 2 melded array, 2x CD horn, March 2012 plans.
T39's: 4 x 20" KL3010LF , 2 x 28" 3012LF.
WH8: x 6 with melded array wired series/parallel.
Bunter's Audio and Lighting "like"s would be most appreciated...

10 feet by 30 feet? One 2x6 SLA Pro per side and your T24. Or a single 4x6 SLA Pro center mounted......That is a tiny room and needs very little to get very loud.

6 - T39 3012LF
4 - OT12 2512
1 - T24
1 - SLA Pro
2 - XF210

Thanks for the advice!!!

For two 6x9 TLAH, is 200W amplifier sufficient for the power supply task?
Each Goldwood mid four inch woofer is rated at 40W RMS and 70W max.

DR250 x4

For that space - 200 watts is plenty. You'll never get close to using it all. 200 watts at 8 ohms is 40 volts. My OT12s never see that much outside playing for 500 people.

TLAH uses either 8 or 9 midbasses, not 6. SLA has a 6 midbass option.
